The message says it: you cannot lock files in the online project. <br>
Why is this so? Because opencms does version management and because
there is a strict
separation between online content (one could also say "active content")
and offline content (one could also say "inactive content"), you always
have to change files in your offline project. After making changes
there, you have to publish them to activate the changes for everybody.<br>
